hau.tang88 is it possible to install radiator on the left side of the case ?
the one behind the I/O shield is masked with a screen I wouldn't recommend it . there is plenty of area in the top and right for a radiator

Yes, but there is a divider between the fans so you could only get up to two separate 140mm rads. But routing the rubes would be awkward, an AIO most likely will not reach. AND THEN it will greatly affect the arrow airflow of the case as they are the only exhaust fans.
Honest answer, yes. Would I do it, definitely no.

you mean inside of the left-side door thingy? There are already two fans back there, so yeah you could definitely put in a small or medium sized radiator if you wanted to. The top would probably be a better place though!
It says I'm a superclocked member, but really I'm just here for the chicks.

Hope you take into account the hose lengths on the AIO cause you want to be able to open that door without ripping something LOL

This case is so hard to build in! I think it looks great despite my troubles. The easiest part was mounting the front 420mm radiator. It was also pretty easy to drill holes for and mount my xspc photon 270. The hardest part for me is getting my tubing lined up and installed properly. It is soooo cramped inside

Thanks Chris. I am almost done building the computer. I leak tested it for an hour and turned everything on and stuff. Just got to reconfigure some drives when I get home from work

I can not wait to see a full custom loop in this case! It gets me excited for my custom loop I have planed in a couple weeks.

I was hoping to get pictures of my hard tube setup yesterday after finishing a 24hr leak test, but instead my mobo failed to post.

Ouch! My motherboard had an error code A2 when I was done but I just hit reset and it started just fine. I feel like my custom loop isn't going to impress because I used black rubber tubing and don't have anything special. I think it looks cool. Very industrial.

DOH! i do hope you tested your hardware before you put in all the hard tubing. if not you'll never know if it was doa or something you did wrong.

All the hardware I have been using for the last month or two in my old case, so it was definitely something in the move. I spent a few hours last night tracking the problem down the the mobo. Fortunately EVGA has 24hr tech support because I ended up calling around 11pm. Turns out the primary bios chip died, and not even 20min after making the call I had a new one scheduled to be shipped. EVGA tech support never ceases to amaze me. From there I couldn't get the backup bios chip to boot to windows so I just put it down the for the night. That problem just turned out to be user error and was fixed when I took more time to crawl around in the bios. My system is now up and running so I hope to have pics up tonight.

You're right, we can't insert images. What do we need to do to get this privilege? I don't see anything to indicate when in the TOS or ultimate starter-thread.

You upload them to a site like photobucket or imageshack and then you simply [img] then paste the url then [/img] no spaces!

Guys I only could say case is fantastic. Pictures are great, but I expect to see many nice configurations in DG-87. Bad because shipping is so expensive. But if someone is close to EVGA and need case than price is good.

Hoping I will have the last of my parts by the end of this week and will be building this weekend **fingers crossed**

Damn is really good case. Even for single card. H110i GT and EVGA Hybrid could full space more, it's not empty at all. I have exactly one little table near computer desk, height is little less than 1m and almost 1.5 long. Exactly for DG-87. My Obsidian 650D stay on side in same position.
